Her lips curl into a menacing smile.

"What shall it be?"

Atma

You beckon the creature closer. She smiles, slowly rising from the water.

She stares directly into your eyes. Her irises are deep and dark like the ocean below. You feel, in another life, you might have fallen in love with her.

As she opens her mouth to speak, you rudely interrupt, shouting "IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT YOU WANT!"

Before she can respond, you swiftly kick her in the midsection, bending her over into prime Stunner position.

Her skull cracks against the ice as you land the most powerful Stunner you've ever attempted. Her body writhes and convulses along the ice. Foam spits at the edges of her mouth. What a sell!

You waste no time and take the opportunity to drive your elbow into her disabled form. You leap as high as you can, wanting to deliver as much damage as possible to guarantee that three count.

As you connect, you feel a great release of energy from within her body. You know you've broken her.

The ice cracks beneath the force of your blow, and both of you are plunged into the icy waters.

You manage to disentangle your body from hers and make it to the surface, gasping for air. The water is unbelievably frigid.

Before you can climb back onto the ice, a massive whirlpool forms beneath you. A great force sucks you downward into darkness. As you descend, the woman's laughter echoes all around you. It feels as if her clammy hands are grabbing at your ankles, weighing you down.

You struggle for the surface but make no gains. The dim light of the surface falls further and further from sight. All fades to black.

..........Time Passes..........

You open your eyes. How long have you been asleep? Where are you?

You feel as if you're floating. The darkness around you washes away, and you see your father before you, smiling proudly.

"You're the best of us, Steven," his voice echoes from every direction. "Your job isn't done yet..."
